 Quantum Dynamics from Cold Atoms to Neutron Stars
===================================================

Introduction
------------

In our group we study the dynamical properties of quantum many-body systems
ranging from cold atoms trapped in one of the `coolest places in the universe
<https://labs.wsu.edu/engels/>`_ -- to the neutron stars where matter is
compressed to such extremes that a teaspoon would weight more than a mountain.
